Definitions
- thermoplastic matrices and bio-fillers have been reported in the literature, wherein various bio-fillers, such as wheat straw, corncob, rice husk, and sugarcane bagasse were incorporated with polymer matrices, such as polypropylene, high-density polyethylene (HDPE), low-density polyethylene, and polyvinyl chloride. From an economic point of view, incorporating a cost-effective filler in a polymer will only be feasible if it does not drastically alter the main matrix-resin characteristics, such as mechanical properties.
- polymer matrices such as polypropylene, high-density polyethylene (HDPE), low-density polyethylene, and polyvinyl chloride.
- date pits On the consumption of date fruit as a main daily meal in almost each Saudi dwelling, date pits are usually discarded as materials with no use or value. Nevertheless, these presumably designated waste materials, i.e., date pits, contain important constituents such as oils (up to 10%), minerals (considerably rich in potassium), and fibers (46.4%) that may be utilized for specific purposes.
- Ghazanfari et al. (“Thermal and Mechanical Properties of Blends and Composites from HDPE and Date Pits Particles”, Journal of Composite Materials, 42(1) (2008); pp. 77-89) disclose formulating polymer-date pits composites based on HDPE as the hosting polymer, and conclude that incorporating date pit flour with HDPE tends to decrease the melt flow index (MFI), and at the same time increase the thermal conductivity of the resulting composites.
- the date pits investigated by Ghazanfari et al. are of the Abdoulahi cultivar, which demonstrate reductions in tensile strength as compared to non-composited (neat) polymer, on increasing weight percentages of date pit flour in the composites.
- FIGS. 1( a )-( c ) show scanning electron micrographs of melt fracture surfaces of various loadings of date pit particulate in high density polyethylene matrices
- FIG. 4 shows a graph comparing the Tensile Strengths of various date pit particulate/high density polyethylene composites at various particulate loading levels.
- the melt processing according to the present invention can be practiced with a number of different thermoplastic polymers to form the composite matrix, such as those selected from the group consisting of polystyrene, polyethylene, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polyvinyl chloride, polymethylmethacrylate, polycarbonate, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) and polyamide.
- thermoplastic polymers such as those selected from the group consisting of polystyrene, polyethylene, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polyvinyl chloride, polymethylmethacrylate, polycarbonate, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) and polyamide.
- ABS acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene
- FIG. 1 shows the morphology of the fractured surface of the blends. It is clearly seen that some fibril morphology has developed. As far the mechanical properties, compounding polymer with date pits particulate did not affect important properties such as tensile strength (ASTM D-638), even at relatively high filler content, e.g 40 wt % ( FIG. 4 ).
- Toughness modifiers were added to the composites to compensate for the reduction in some properties, such as impact strength using some melated polyolefins elastomers (e.g. ethyelene/propylene grafted with maleic anhydride, indicated as EP-g-MA).
- FIG. 3( b ) shows the morphology of melt fracture surface of a composite containing 30 wt % K and 70 wt % PS.
